Too Early to Nest?

So in the last week stuff has been driving me crazy. Like I deep cleaned the bedroom this past weekend because I couldn’t handle anything about it. It wasn’t gross or super messy but it made me crazy. Just now I had to, HAD TO, trim the hedges outside because I just couldn’t wait until this weekend. And it’s basically nighttime. And I was still in my work clothes. But I had to do it!

Wow, I'm impressed! I have an urge to do SO (significant other) many things around the house but ZERO energy! It's terrible because all these things are stacking up on my list and then it just depresses me because I can't get to any of them. Good thing I have an amazing hubby to delegate to. But then I have to wait for him to do it at his own speed.

Yea. I sweep and mop daily. Certain things I won't buy now because I don't want it to get dusty. My Amazon baby items wish list is complete. I am gonna buy my postpartum supplies first and buy the baby items monthly. When I get baby girl's dresser then I will start buying clothes because I don't want bags all over the place collecting dust. I already have her clothes rack but I have to clean it often because it's a dust magnet. My older daughter and this new little girl are gonna share room space. I have already cleared out a space on my side of the room for her pack and play and a little utility cart for her belongings. I am doing things little by little before we start making purchases.

Arguing with me is pointless. I just say my peace and leave. You can keep talking though...

My cleaning obsession isn’t even baby related yet! I need to get down DD’s clothes and go through them (she had a lot of gender neutral stuff), freshen up the cloth diapers, get the furniture out of storage, etc.

If I swept and mopped daily I wouldn’t be able to move! It kills my back!

Same here I have been deep cleaning all over my house. We don’t have a dishwasher and I have a family of 7 to wash dishes for, so been on top of that with my daughter. But I pulled out all my living room stuff cleaned behind under on top and my dining room as well as my room. Still have three rooms and the bathroom to do, to feel like I’ve done something right. It’s early nesting but this is my first time ever feeling the nesting call. This is my fifth baby. 😊

Mentally it has hit but physically not so much. DF (dear fiancee) and I did some yard work over the weekend to prepare for the baby shower. I want to do so much and have such a long list but no energy to do it all yet. Possibly because I've been sick a lot lately. My immune system has been complete trash this whole pregnancy.

My vacuum broke so I need to buy a new one and I also want to buy a new carpet cleaner instead of hiring someone to come out and do it. We also are wanting to paint the walls in our room. I want to scrub our entire house from top to bottom but again no energy to do so. I also for some reason want to buy all new dishes and throw out anything that we have right now. I've gone mad and every suggestion I have DF (dear fiancee) looks at me like I've lost my mind.

Your 3-month-old: Week 1

Your baby has been able to recognize you since he was just a few days old, but now he may actually be able to show it. About half of babies this age begin to exhibit an obvious recognition of their parents.

Your 3-month-old: Week 2

Babies simply love to be touched. In fact, they thrive on it - touch is a critical part of growth and development. All that skin-to-skin contact not only helps you and your baby bond, but it's comforting when she's upset and soothing when she's irritable.

Your 3-month-old: Week 4

When placed on her stomach, your baby will probably lift her head and shoulders high, using her arms for support. This mini push-up helps strengthen her muscles and gives her a better view of what's going on.
